Mitt Romney gives a brutal PowerPoint critique of Obama’s foreign policy

ARTHUR 1976 said:
Yep Bush signed the sofa agreement , and the deal with the Iraq Government was an out date of Dec 31 2011.

At least Obama prevented another 9-11 unlike drunk Bush, LOL..

Gee Iraq was started 6 years before Obama took office, it wasn't his war, nice try but that Bull**** won't fly here..

Gee didn't Rumsfeld say it was only going to be a 2, month war??

Where are those WMDS??

So we still have to fight them over there to keep them from coming over here?, LoL..

I thought according to Dick the insurgency was dying out in 2005??

Freedom fries, ???

Bring it on, WELL THEY BROUGHT IT!!

NOW WHO SCREWED UP FOREIGN POLICY AGAIN????¿???

LOL!!

Just like you can't get over your hatred of Obama to acknowledge Bush's failures..

When the Big bad USA stops trying to be the Worlds Police, then THERE WON'T BE ANY MORE FOREIGN POLICY issues huh???

I'm personally glad the USA failed in Iraq because it was started under drunk Bush, under false BS..

And I'm glad that 2010 Afghanistan surge (by Obama ) failed too!! Sorry Afghanistan was a loss, LOL..

Just like Cons wanted the ACA to fail I want all of their Wars to fail!! What's good for the goose is good for the gander..

American Imperialism isn't so mighty anymore huh???:lamo..

If the Iraq people don't even want to help themselves why should this country always try to bail their sorry asses out??

Funny how Cons hate Big Government, and wasteful spending, but love spending on unwinnable **** Wars that last for decades..

I'm sure all of our dead and maimed veterans are gratified by your glee at their failures.

In any case, you are being quite naive if you think your utopian wish for us to stop being "the Worlds Police" (whatever THAT is) will eliminate the need for foreign policy.


On a side note, is 1976 your birth year? If so, I would think you would have grown up and gotten past your 20-something understanding of issues. (not to mention your sarcasm, presentation of irrelevant stuff and hyperbole-laden manner of speaking)

Cheyney was the CEO of HALLIBURTON not Clinton..

Your the last one that should be talking about ignorance on here..

The problem with Obama's foreign policy is that it's easy to point out the mistakes because they involve nearly everything he touches. It's the election season and I have no idea what Romney's intentions are but I'm sure of this. He had the forethought to know what the issues were and he would have made a much better president than the one that got elected.

Romney could have been elected back in 2012, but then he got into social politics.

In 2008 the US Air force flew 550 metric tons of Yellow Cake Uranium out of Iraq and into Canada.

True story

What the **** is your issue? Our soldiers died there. You shouldn't be glad at our military shortcomings. Rather, you should be angry at the politicians who started them in the first place.

What you're doing is nothing other showcasing inferiority.

Clinton in 1998 admitted that Saddam Hussein HAD WMD.

Hilary Clinton in 2003 admitted that Saddam Hussein was giving aid and comfort to Al Qaeda.

Al Gore in 2003 admitted that Saddam Hussein was hiding WMD all over Iraq

See where I'm going with this ?

Your Bush obsession is clouding your judgement.

The spread of Islamofascism was exacerbated due to dumbya's silly war on Iraq, which removed the only regime that was keeping that Islamofascism in check.

We could ask conservatives 456,789,234 times why O or any other US civilian should be responsible for cleaning up the mess made by dumbya, but we'd never get an answer.

A foolish question and one that should answer itself. It was Obama's job when elected to be the commander n chief, construct an intelligent foreign policy which made the world a better place than the one he found when he was elected. He failed at all of that.

Actually, he has a good point, or at least half of a point. The other half is that the Democrats are no different. Both major parties are under control of the corporate elite.

You have no idea what I think about Bush's foreign policy decisions. Since this thread topic concerns Obama, that is what I'll talk about here. Also, I don't "hate" Obama. I'm just objective enough to be able to look at his decisions, actions and the results of them...and make a judgment. Kind of like Romney did.

So...you got any other cute little tactics you want to dust off and present here? You've already tried deflection...that didn't work. Now you raise a strawman...and that isn't working either. Don't give up, dude...there are plenty more tactics for you to use.

Obama is a lousy president but he's a great politician. He cobbled together a group of minorities and white misfits that just had the numbers to pull him through. Of coarse he lost the house and senate because his presidency has always been about him and not his party.

I don't give a ****, nobody put a gun to their head and made them join the Military..

Funny and extremely hypocritical how the Cons, and Tea Maggots always scream about how much they hate the Government, yet Love the Military!! The last time I checked the Military is part of the Government..

Yea 1976 was a great year huh!! All the Gazillions of folks like me born in the 1970s and 80s and even the 90s. Are all gonna be around a helluva lot longer than those old white fogys who vote Repug..

But we can't deny that Romney fukt up and that's why Obama won.

Social conservatism, especially with MY generation, is going to utterly kill ANY politician.

The only time this may not really be the case is with abortion.

Oh yea the GOP is " dying off ".

You can tell they're in BIG trouble after the 2014 Midterms, right ?


You people were so " successful " you turned Texas Blue...

Oh wait, thats not right.
 
sawdust said:
I will give you one thing. I didn't like Romneycare, just as I don't like Obamacare. One thing, among many, that you seem to have missed that really sticks out. Romney warned us that Russia was a major geopolitical threat. This is before they took Crimea, invaded the Ukraine, backed Iran, out maneuvered us in Syria and threatened NATO. Obama was and remains clueless. Hillary couldn't even get the reset button right.

And GW Bush "saw into Putin's soul" and he invaded Georgia. But not before Bush did this....

Regardless of what happens next, it is worth asking what the Bush people were thinking when they egged on Mikheil Saakashvili, Georgia's young, Western-educated president, to apply for NATO membership, send 2,000 of his troops to Iraq as a full-fledged U.S. ally, and receive tactical training and weapons from our military. Did they really think Putin would sit by and see another border state (and former province of the Russian empire) slip away to the West? If they thought that Putin might not, what did they plan to do about it, and how firmly did they warn Saakashvili not to get too brash or provoke an outburst?

The Bush administration's feckless response to the Russian invasion of Georgia.

I'm afraid no President could equal Bush's follies...even Romney
..and now your party is thinking of running yet another one.

No question: Obama has not done a very good job of fixing errors of his predecessor. The previous administration dug a very, very deep hole.

Your Clinton, Obama derangement Syndrome is sincerely clouding your feeble judgement, Who invaded Iraq in 2003???? I'll give you a hint he's a drunk Texan..

One last time Bushie had the WH, and congress he said let's go!! He's the one that beat invaded not the Clinton's...

Obama was in office 6 Full years after Bush invaded and 2 years before the drunk signed the Sofa treaty yet its Obama's Failure, nice try but as usual Fail...

Romney lost it when he got recorded saying that he couldn't worry about the 47% who would never vote for him under any circumstance. That made him into an elitist who didn't care about the little people. Of coarse he was talking about votes and not socioeconomics but perception is reality.
